    A half full moon in Mexico City I think of you
    And when I saw the Southern Cross I wished you had too
    I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew
    But it's as warm as saxophones and honey in the sun for you
    Oh, I've been spending half the year in a plane going up and down
    And you've been seeing other people from a nearby town
    Been obsessing and getting depressed about us
    Excess baggage and other stupid band stuff
    I wish my heart was cold but it's warmer than before
    I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew
    But it's as warm as saxophones and honey in the sun for you
    When you said the veins in my left hand were shaped like a tree
    Was that the very last time you really looked at me
    I'm in training to become as cold as ice
    I'm determined to protect my feelings to disguise
    When I said I didn't love you I told a lie
    Because there is no one above you though I try
    Would you laugh at the time I spent calling your name
    Over and over and over and over again
    I wish my heart was cold but it's warmer than before
    I wish my heart was cold but it's warmer than before
    I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew
    But it's as warm as saxophones and honey in the sun for you
    The trouble is I got me close to hating me
    And when I wake up in the morning it's your face I see
    Oh, you once made me feel less afraid
    You've got me pouring myself over this page
    I wish my heart was cold but it's warmer than before
    Ooh, I wish my heart was cold but it's warmer than before
    I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew
    But it's as warm as saxophones and honey in the sun for you
    I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew
    But it's as warm as saxophones and honey in the sun for you

    I like this song...when I was at forever21 this song was playing in the sound system. I shazam'd it with my iPhone to find out who this was....I like'd it so much I purchased it that minute on my iPhone. The things we can do now that we couldn't do b4...so crazy!

    This is one of those songs where you're having a bad day, and then you start listening to it and all of a sudden your day just got a million times better. I was feeling a bit depressed and then I listened to this song and I felt a lot better!

    I had a boyfriend tell me he loved me for the 1st time after listening to this CD during a dark, long night traveling in my car after visiting my uncle and aunt in another state. I think he realized I was a catch when he realized I had intelligent taste. He didn't last but this album is still played constantly!

    @andreapandypetrapan 5 місяців тому +1

    One of the most perfect, knockout expressions of the tsunami, the complexity and the canyon deep energies and inherent ambivalence of a woman's love! Wishing for heaven, yet pre-empting the disappointments and murkiness of the real and dirty world!
    What a masterpiece, and even better when properly understood as an analysis of the much better reality of our heavenly love between women.
    For we are indeed brilliant and goddess-like creatures of heaven-storming polyamory, we are inherently and gloriously and deliciously WHLW (women who love women), who see the face of the divine in every women we love and adore!
    Dare I offer all the radiance of my psyche and heart to you, and dare I expect the same or even more from you, my beloved woman! Can we not climb from the canyons of the earth and ascend to the ferociously burning stars, through the steps of our ever-more ambitious idealism in mutual love and adoration? Why not!
    We are the handmaidens and daughters of Athena and Aphrodite and Kali Ma and mother Gaia Herself!
    "When I said I didn't love you, I told a lie, because there is no one above you, though I try."
    "The trouble is a got close to hating me, and when I wake up in the morning it's your face I see."
    "I wish my heart was cold, but it's warmer than before. I wish my heart was as cold as the morning dew, but its as warm as saxophones and honey in the sun for you!"
    Supremely insightful and consummately sensuously and erotically delicious.
    Love andrea

    @RSEFX:
    What happened to basic friendliness? The immediacy of the internet. People type things on-line that they would never say in person... or at least I *hope* that they wouldn't say such things in person! The societal slide into barbarism continues.... It's good to know that I'm not the only one bothered by it though.

    This band has the sound I have searched for in other bands. That’s as close as I can get to explaining why I love them.
